European cities are also far less susceptible to the "but cars" argument. They already heavily tax and control motor-vehicle traffic, and achieve far lower traffic-crash stats than we do. So it's possible for them to hold two thoughts in their heads, which our streets advocates can't do: cars need a lot of regulation and in some places bans, and so does nuisance motorized "micromobility." These things aren't opposites but complements.
@CoreyWriting Seriously, i don't want to hear any more about gaza. She lost because she was a literal DEI hire (Biden said as much) and not a very good one.
@moseskagan This is the problem with city welfare programs in a nutshell. People who canβt afford expensive cities move in and stay and the people funding the largesse gradually leave.
